Unacceptable in Two Ways July 18, 2020 Reviewer: Toons from Hertford, NC United States   I purchased this kit to put into my Husqvarna 350 that I ran too hot and destroyed the piston.  I purchased this kit because I thought that the price indicated that it was higher quality than the $40 kits that I saw.  I was wrong.  After installation, the flywheel actually rubbed the side of the cylinder so hard that it would not turn.  There is no way that the cylinder can be installed with a misalignment because of the tight tolerances on the head bolts.  This is just a bad casting or a very bad casting design.  I had to uninstall and file down the edge of my flywheel to make it work.  Additionally, the cylinder on the 350 has an upper and lower part.  No gasket was provided.  It does come with the $40 kits.  The casting is not identical to the original.  The original is made of separate parts that are bolted together.   Again, the $40 kits have this same feature.  Finally, the finished machine is hard to start and does not run as strong as it did.   $ does not equal quality.

Hyway Husqvarna 350 Nikasil plated cylinder September 23, 2019 Reviewer: Anonymous Person from Ocala, FL United States   My local repair center agreed to install the Nikasil plated cylinder that I purchased for my Husqvarna 350 chain saw.  It was a successful repair however,... Afterwards, I discovered this and it gives me concern. " with Nikasil cylinder bore linings are particularly vulnerable to fuel (gasoline or petrol) with a high sulfur content. The sulfur in the fuel breaks up the Nikasil lining in the cylinders, thus causing a loss of compression. Once the lining is damaged, excessive bore wear of the soft, underlying alloy occurs very quickly. Some Nikasil engines have failed in as little as 30,000 miles. And the effect is cumulative, so if the engine has ever been run on high sulfur fuel, the damage may already have been done and premature bore wear may result. Some symptoms of the Nikasil problem are rough running at idle and difficult cold starting, both due to loss of compression. In severe cases, the loss of compression is so bad that the engine loses power." Was this review helpful to you?

Hyway Husqvarna 350, 351, 353 Nikasil plated cylin March 30, 2015 Reviewer: John Brodmerkle from Barre, MA United States   Overall this is a good kit. the more i run it the more im impressed as it runs in, I wasnt impressed at first but its starting to run real well i did some extra work to the cylinder lol.  the exhaust port was really not on the performing side after some light port work and some run time its becoming a nice runner with my 8 pin .325  the  circlips are difficult to get in and im thinking they are used on more than one top end they do fit very tight though. i ended up using the oem clips anyways. I recommend getting a ring compressor kit with the piston stop block  to hold steady putting them aftermarket clips in  remember to install the clips up or down Was this review helpful to you?
